Foot and leg Pain

The feet and legs are the most common source of pain and dysfunction.

There are 26 bones in the feet, 33 joints and over 100 ligaments that make up the foot.

Pain is a complex physiological and psychological process.

The body and minds response to pain can be debilitating to those who suffer.

Pain can be a result of overuse injury of tissues, chronic poor foot posture and repetitive stress injury.
